Selling a microwave in Devonport
Devonport is where the ferry from the mainland docks, which makes a town of this size a genuine gateway, and it sits in the middle of one of the most productive vegetable-growing districts in the country. Caravans and vehicles come off that ferry constantly.
The town is small and driving is easy. The ferry timetable shapes the traffic through town more than anything else, so it is worth avoiding the hour either side of a sailing if you are collecting something large.
On a caravan or anything that has toured, check the seals and the roof before the interior. Water ingress is what actually destroys them, and it is invisible from inside until the damage is done.
Devonport, in Tasmania, has around 30,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Hobart, Launceston and Sydney are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
